*       <<<<<<<<  SWMM 4.4H EXTRAN DATA FILE >>>>>>>>>

*

*

*       February 2001

*       New D2 and D3 lines.

*       General clean-up of this file by Chuck Moore and Wayne Huber.

*       July 20, 2004. Minor change for TOLCS1 variable and for

*       DEEP and WIDE variables for conduits 9, 10, 11.  

*       Option for three different spatial weighting, new AA line.  

*

*       This is an input data file to the SWMM 4.4H (CDM/OSU) Extran Block

*       for modeling the hydraulics of sewer or open channel systems.

*       All lines with an asterisk in column 1 are comment lines

*       and are ignored by the program.  All information following

*       an asterisk on an input line are considered to be comments also.

*       The user should get in the habit if using asterisks to separate

*       data from comments.

*

*       Input data are free format and may be up to 230 columns wide.

*       You must have a value for every data column even if the program

*       will not actually use a given value.  There must be at least one

*       space or comma between every input value.  Alphanumeric data must

*       be enclosed in single quotes.

*

*       Caution!  Data lines that are "wrapped around" (continued on

*       two or more lines) should have a blank in column 1, unless a

*       card identifier is needed.

*

*       In general, SWMM parameters with names that begin with the letters

*       I,J,K,L,M,N are integers (e.g., NSCRAT() ), following the usual

*       Fortran convention, and entered values must not include a

*       decimal point.

*

*       To avoid literary quotes being printed in output, use $NOQUOTE

*       after MM line.

*

*       SWMM uses both U.S. customary units and metric units.  The

*       examples use feet, cfs, acres, inches and inches/hour.  If metric

*       is specified substitute meters, cms, hectares, millimeters and

*       millimeters/hour.  If metric is used, internal computations in

*       the Extran Block are also performed in metric units.

*============================================================================

*       The SW card sets up the interface files to be used or created.  In 

*       this example there is one output file (#8) that will contain the 

*       time series of flows for subsequent blocks.

*       By default, this file contains flows at all outfalls at

*       each time step.  If you don't need this output, leave JOUT equal

*       to zero to avoid writing results to scratch file which is

*       is subsequently erased.  If INTER (line B0) is entered as a negative ,

*       number, then detailed output of model configuration, depths, and 

*       flows are written to the file associated with JOUT in ASCII format.

*

*       Extran does not perform pollutant routing.  If pollutants are

*       included on an input interface file, they are ignored.

*============================================================================

*  NBLOCK  JIN(1)  JOUT(1)

SW    1      0       8

*============================================================================

*   The MM card opens the scratch files to be used by different subroutines.

*   A certain number (up to 8 for Extran) may be required for each block.

*  NSCRAT(1) - Save results for summary output (unformatted sequential)

*  NSCRAT(2) - Hot start input and output file (unformatted sequential)

*  NSCRAT(3) - B9 writing of flows at specified conduits (ASCII or

*    unformatted sequential)

*    Note, must define NSCRAT(3) with @-line if use B9 line option.

*  NSCRAT(4) - Read and write irregular channel data to scratch file

* NSCRAT(5) - Read tidal history data from ASCII file

* NSCRAT(8) - Write EPA CEAM WASP (Water Analysis Simulation Program) model 

*    hydrodynamic input file (.HYD).

*============================================================================

*  NITCH  NSCRAT(1)  NSCRAT(2)  NSCRAT(3)  NSCRAT(4)

MM   4       1          2          3          4

*

*============================================================================

*     The @ command is used to save an interface or scratch file

*     permanently, or to access a previously saved file.  This line should

*     be placed before the first SWMM block call.  The format of the @

*     command is as follows:

*============================================================================

*Column 1    Unit number of the       Name of the interface

*            interface file saved     file (any valid DOS filename)

*            or utilized              associated with this unit number.

*

*@             8                        'EXDOC.DNT'

* Note, must define DOS name for NSCRAT(3) when using B9 option.

@              3                        'scrat3.sav'

*     If file names are not defined on the @ line, the program will attempt

*     to read the file names from the command line. For example, enter the

*     following at the dos prompt, in the batch file, or on the Windows run

*     line to run swmm.exe, read input from IN.DAT, write output to OUT.OUT,

*     and save JOUT = 8 output to EXDOC.INT.

*       SWMM IN.DAT OUT.OUT EXDOC.INT

*============================================================================

*Column 1

* $ANUM  ==> Use alphanumeric names for Extran conduits and junctions.

*            If used in one block, then alphanumeric must be used in all

*            prior and subsequent blocks.  Names (IDs) must be enclosed in

*            single quotes.  Names can include up to 10 characters.

*            When using default output tables, a maximum length of 6

*            characters is recommended, although most 10-character names will

*            print satisfactorily.  This Version 4.4GU includes options *            to provide alternative output tables that will print all

*            10 digits or characters of the file names (see JP10 input on BA

*            card.

*============================================================================

*Column 1

* $NOQUOTE ==> Omit on-screen and printed literary quotations in SWMM output.

*============================================================================

$EXTRAN         Call the Extran Block with a '$' in first column.
